Going over 1000mhz cpu clock and gpu is possible but I meant any speed higher than 1000mhz is pushing your CPU and not all phones will handle it thus causeing unstable phone,the idea is to find the highest frequency your processor can handle and start OCing or undervolting . What I normally do in nstool is turn my CPU up to say 1200mhz Max and min also 1200mhz ondemand governor no modified governor,then run some videos or an app that I know normally makes my phone unstable to see if it can handle that speed. This is done with default int and arm speed. In nstool Rember to leave save settings uncheck in the event phone restarts and make a note of settings u made until everything is stable. Ok If that 1200mhz is unstable i would try upping the arm voltage by 25 and if still unstable will then upp int voltage and test again. wance I figure my phone limit or speed I adjust the lower cpu speeds accordingly if need to.Then i start OC but not to go over 1300mhz cause I now know I can't run 1300mhz so I will try to OC as close to 1300mhz as possible with stable voltages. Anyways this is an example of how I OC,maybe will help. Play with the speed and voltages.

Last update lulzactive v2

This is my second last update with previous configuration *see here*

Phone used over a period of 21 hours after a full charge!

Battery still at 15% so I'm pretty sure it would go up to 24 hours! Good enough for my heavy usage!

Screen has been up to 49% which translates to 3h 32m 20s.... something I DO NOT LIKE is the Android OS usage 25% with eugene373 and steve's kernels this never went up that high!

Now, I am ready to start messing up with voltages and see if I can manage to squeeze more battery life without affecting performance... I will edit in a minute to show new settings!

EDIT: I started charging my phone up about an hour 1/2 ago give or take and been playing with voltages, I think I have come with a stable OC'd kernel using lulzactive v2 governor.

My new settings working for the last 20 minutes without a reboot are:

Governor: lulzactive v2

Min - Max: 100 - 1000

LIVEOC: 110%

DEEP IDLE: OFF

BLN - BLD: ON

IO Scheduler: SIO

VOLTAGES:

ARM

100-950

200-950

400-1050

800-1200

1000-1250

INT

100-975

200-1050

400-1050

800-1050

1000-1100

With these settings phone feels snappy-free-of-lag and I will report back my experience with this governor!

Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Okay, I think I have come up with a stable OC'd Kernel using lulzactive *had to play a lot with the voltages on both ARM and INT*

If if does not reboot until midnight I think it would be safe to lower the INT -25 and will do so one by one until my phone can handle the UV without changing the ARM Voltages.

Glad it works :)
[Nexus S Android Development] centroi:
F******* amazing the 14.5, 3 hours and only 2% less battery.... its posible? Ahahahah ohhh yeah, lulzactive governor 100-800. Excelent perfomance and ridiculous battery usage in idle, now lets see in use.

What is exactly function of sio? What is it?
[Nexus S Android Development] maniac2403:
Matrix 14.5 with lulzactive v2 governor is plenty fast for me. Didn't even bother oc'ing and all my apps run smooth. No lag at all. I did use the lulzactive app from the market by tegrak, to tinker with the governor settings. 1.5 days + battery life is just great!
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
So there's an app? Thought it was enough with nstools
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
Yes its in the market
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Cool will have to research a bit more! Thanks
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
Type "lulzactive" in market lol
[Nexus S Android Development] civicdrivr:
V14.5 with CM9 A20p1 is rock stable for me and I get great battery life. LiveOC doesn't work properly with my phone so I just oc to 1200mhz.

I am running an extended battery though. But with other kernels, I'd be around 40% by now.

Nexusbeam rom with mk 13.5

200/1300 I increased the voltage for 1.3 ghz

running stable for more than 10 days straight. Got around 300 hours
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Well, I am not liking the new OC'd settings.... Battery performance not as great!! My phone was fully charged at 10pm last night and so far I have screen on usage for 1h 45m 53s and a remaining of 59% left on battery for a total of 11h 36m of usage after a full charge.

My previous setup without the OC seemed to work better!

I don't think I need DEEP_IDLE on since this will not make me any good 'cause when my phone screen is OFF I do not use it for nothing, no music listening no BT nothing.

Trying to think what changes to make to make my battery lasts longer.

EDIT: I changed the IO scheduler to NOOP and changed some settings with the lulzactive app in order to make it more responsive! Read on the Samsung II noop might work better with the lulzactive governor.
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
Also, try a different io scheduler
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Indeed, did that changed to NOOP now.... let's see if they get along when OC'd

update to version 1.11, you can set lulzactive setting
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
is the "lulzactive v2" everyone is referring to = "lulzactive" in the nstools / setcpu governor list? since i dont have a lulzactive v2 in my list.

Also i'm using "lulzactive" and i aint seeing the brilliant idle stats and battery life everyone else seems to be getting..

100-1200 MHz with deep idle on. no LiveOC.. stock voltages.. and lost 40% in 6 hours with light use and under an hour of screen use...

My concern is around the idle time, i keep losing about 3-5% per hour of idle time. is this normal? (android OS is using the most battery though).. any suggestions?

(running ASOP+)
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
From what I've read Peters ROM and AOKP are the most stable ones. I've used these two only and I've had no issues with kernels and I've tries them all. I started with Eugene's then Ezekeel then Steve and now I'm testing mathkid95 because of lulzactive and lagfree governors.

If you go a few pages back try my settings and see if that helps. If you're not overclocking use SIO scheduler.
[Nexus S Android Development] technogravy:
Is Deep Idle counteractive if you aren't using your phone for music, etc with screen off? I have deep idle on too but i dont use it for anything with the screen off.. (apart from any push notifications/ syncs from mail, im clients, plume...).
[Nexus S Android Development] y3mita:
Deep idle is just a function added to help kernel maximize battery by controlling the idle state when using your phone while your phone is on the SCREEN OFF mode, therefore in my case not needed.

If you're to listen music or use BT when the screen state is OFF then I see a benefit of using deep idle but I don't think GREAT benefits at all.
[Nexus S Android Development] The1Shark:
Just letting you know that It happened to me too.. I rebooted the phone and got the rotation working again.

I'm on rooted stock and matr1x v14.5

Later today I completly lost the signal. I though I was on flight mode but no. I turned on and off the flight mode ant still got nothing. no signal.

I then rebooted the phone and got the signal back again.

I am not saying it's a kernel issue, just sharing, maybe it will happen to someone else.

Thanks for the clarification.

I'm un/ov 200/1300 and running GPU at 105% speed which gives me 210/1365.

I'm using default kernel voltage which are lower then the stock default.

Any how I'm pleased with the performance so I will stick to this configuration for now.

Last update OC'd lulzactive v2 - working setup

Here we go, last update using a working setup for lulzactive v2...

It has been about 18 hours of use with 28% battery left. My screen has been ON for a total of 3h 22m.... once again I believe I can go 24 hours straight at this rate! For a heavy user like me, this is good enough! My screen is ON almost 50% of the time.

I achieved this with the following settings:

Governor: lulzactive v2

Min-Max: 100 - 1000

OC: 110%

DEEP IDLE: OFF

IO Scheduler: NOOP (I started with SIO but phone did not like it) I guess NOOP is better for overclocking this kernel using lulzactive v2

BLN-BLD: ON

ARM VOLT:

100-950

200-950

400-1050

800-1200

1000-1250

INT VOLT:

100-975

200-1050

400-1050

800-1050

1000-1100

Also, when my battery was about 50% I did the following changes to lulzactive thru NSTOOLS 1.11:

INC CPU LOAD: 75

PUMP UP STEP: 2

PUMP DOWN STEP: 1

SCREEN OFF MIN STEP: 5@440MHZ

UP SAMPLE TIME: 16000

DOWN SAMPLE TIME: 35000

What's next? I've been considering to flash Peter Alfonso's ROM but not completely convinced yet. My main ROM is AOKP MILESTONE 2 *it has not given me problems* but I heard good things about Pete's as well.

Also, been thinking to try new eugene373's kernel once he releases SPEEDY 6

Well, no more wiping battery stats:

Google engineer Diane Hackborn has taken to Google+ to dispel the myth that wiping battery stats can improve your battery life, or the efficiency with which your phone charges.

"This file [batterystats.bin] is used to maintain, across reboots, low-level data about the kinds of operations the device and your apps are doing between battery changes. That is, it is solely used to compute the blame for battery usage shown in the "Battery Use" UI in settings. That is, it has deeply significant things like "app X held a wake lock for 2 minutes" and "the screen was on at 60% brightness for 10 minutes."

It has no impact on the current battery level shown to you. It has no impact on your battery life."

I hate to beat a dead horse, but my brain hurts from trying to figure out the whole top=on and top=off thing. I feel like I have read different things about how it works. From what I have read, I am assuming this post is the most accurate:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=21056844&postcount=989

If I understand it correctly, if I have Bluetooth enabled, that is the only time I should see top=on.

When I have Bluetooth disabled the phone will only use the top-off mode.

Is this correct or do i need to flash the framework fix?
[Nexus S Android Development] DaX05:
Its a rom issue by default. ONLY download the framework if you are on stock ICS. Go download CM9 Alpha 20p1 as its already been added to the rom. All you have to do is flash gapps & the matr1x kernel. :) Don't forget to do a full wipe, clear dalvik cache & format system. Report back!

Some questions

Is there anywhere a readme/F.A.Q about the abbreviations or some words used in the Features list? Some of them are understandable but most of them not.

I mean terms like SLQB, Deadline, SIO I/O Schedulers, the use of the additional governors (Smartassv2, Lazy, Minmax, Lagfree, InteractiveX, Lulzactivev2), Stochastic Fair Blue (internet packet queue management algorithm), CIFS, TUN, NFS and all of Ezekeel's mods like LiveOC, Deep Idle, Backlight Dimmer and Touchwake.

I could search for each one on google but It would be easier for me and a lot of other people to understand if someone could explain them in one post.

P.S. Why are there Colors versions of the latest 14.5 version? I searched for it a bit but couldn't find anything.

Thanks in advance.

[Nexus S Android Development] cpom1:
14.5 still working great math! :D Whats the current setup of your phone? And which scheduler are you using?
[Nexus S Android Development] rickbosch:
Hey guys,

Just thought I'd share my settings because they've been fantastic for me so far.

Running Pete's Nightlies (any one of them, they're all super stable, but obviously the newer the better).

Matr1x Kernel 14.5 CFS,

Lulzactive - CPU load 70%, Pump up - 2 step, pump down 1, other settings are default

100/1000,

SIO,

BLD, BLX and BLN on,

Deep Idle on (I listen to a ton of music),

No LiveOC.

[edit]

I've tinkered a little more and this is what I am settling on, it's snappy, no lags and battery is as great as always.

Lulzactive - Noop scheduler

CPU - 80%

Pump up - 2

Pump down - 1

Up sample 15000

[edit]

Stable, smooth and battery life EASILY lasts a day. Went to bed last night with 40% still on the battery, 2.5 hrs screen time.

Another little tip that I picked up on the buglessbeast thread here is to navigate to: /system/lib/egl and change the extension or delete the libGLES_android.so and reboot.

It not only made the entire UI smoother, but I have NO GREEN FLICKER at all anymore. None. Maybe I'm lucky, maybe it can work for you, either way, I'm loving this.

Best battery ever yet - lulzactive report

I'm happy to announce I'm loving this lulzactive governor on Matr1x kernel *just incredible awesome*

For those of you who have followed my reports in about page 140, I had been testing this lulzactive governor and at my previous reports I was using AOKP rom MILESTONE 2, then decided to give build 17 a try but it was awful.

Anyhow, clean install with Peter Alfonso's ROM Jan13 with this kernel and boy lemme tell you, these two are the perfect matrimony! Since my previous reports were mostly words, this time I am presenting evidence as well!
